Who directed the 2014 film Noah, which retells the Ark story?

Darren Aronofsky directed the 2014 film Noah, a dramatic retelling of the biblical Ark story. Aronofsky also co-wrote the screenplay with Ari Handel.

The film stars Russell Crowe as Noah and includes Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, Logan Lerman, and Anthony Hopkins in major roles. It adapts material from Genesis while adding fictionalized characters, conflicts, and visual elements for a feature-film narrative.

Noah was released in 2014 and became a major international production. Its director is sometimes confused with the actors who played Noah or members of his family, but Darren Aronofsky is the filmmaker credited with directing it. The film’s imaginative additions should not be treated as details stated in Genesis.
